little Hint:

Put together an Antique Bedroom

Start with bed.

Like this cast iron chippy look.

This has pale aqua/baby blue tones.

Add Treddle sewing machine

bottomed table

Antique oak top I refinished

with a bronze sparkle glazing.

An old birdcage to fill with

collectables.

Vintage handstitched

feather ticking pillow

can be quaint.

Make a table at foot of the bed

with old milk cans and window.

The window would be fun anywhere

wouldn't it!

New bronze sparkle glazing

on these rustic

milk cans

look fantastic.

Would be classic as a

table lamp stand.

I'd throw an antique mirror/window

on top of it

then load it up.

OLDEST cabinet I have ever acquired

Chippy white paint

 

Check out the slat board

layered into its mirrored door!

Add unique style mirrors/frames etc.

Antique wicker hampers

handy for clothes

and storage.

Accessorize with vintage

folded paper books

Here is a heated food warmer

used as a jewlery holder.

Be unique

be creative peeps!

for bunching in your

old wedding baskets

or tickle your fancy

Sweet Lavender Dixie

This Brown box

came as a suprise to ME.

Everyday I get many brown boxes

but they are for you.

 I knew there would be lavender inside

Dixie owned  lavender House.

I was right.

Ahhh the scent of sweet lavender.

Totally expecting something soft

and hand stitched.

instead...

A friend who knows me well.

Hand written

choice saying 

with tiny dried florals framed.

I put it in a special place as an

important reminder:

Keep Hope

Think every year at my birthday

I will change my   

 "word of the year."

new Tradition.

Thank you dear friend.

Love you.

Noted this in the drive-up window in Farmington gas mart

I rarely go there.

Does this strike you odd

or is this the recession norm now days?

speaking of recession norm...have you seen the snickers candy bar

it's like 1/2 the size

At first I thought...that's bad for business

But then again if it forces you inside

chances are you buy more?

Before you start your" After the summer cleaning"  moms

take advantage of some quiet time

with Bliss Victoria

It won't let you down.

In fact Gina of Peacock Park is featured in an outdoor tent setting

charming

Big Bang of a week

Here is my oldest grandson Conner

He spent the week with us

now he's back home and we miss him.

We love his sense of humor

He's so handsome and very polite to us.

A good smart child

He started out with the flu

so he was pampered.

We hauled him off to yard sales... 2 times but not 3.

Just not his thing.

He went grasshopper hunting with grandpa

to feed them to the chickens next door.

hmmmmm.

yucky boy stuff.

HIS thing is the computer.

He loves games.

Missed HIS COMPUTER alot.

And his cats.

Plus his annoying sisters.

 missed his family.

17 Miracles

A Mormon Pioneer story of the Willie Handcart company was playing

in the movie theaters

Conner is a good partner for grandma and movie watching.

He said grandma I only counted 16 miracles.

The Big Bang Theory is a tv series

My sister, mother of 4 boys and knows what boys like, said we must watch.

Where have I  been?

We began with season 1  (75 episodes)

Had to watch season 2! (like 100 episodes)

Laughed our heads off with each episode.

Mr. Roses laughed out loud too!

Began season 3 last day

now addicted, love these guys

Leonard, Sheldon Penny etc.

Can't wait for season 4 on dvd which is due out Sept. 12

Big Bang Marathon for sure

These may help you get through the last weeks of summer.

Are you doing okay?

I am not one to sit.

Haven't sat this much since before opening the shop 5 years ago.

Kept hands busy bundling tons of wrinkly ribbon while viewing

it's in the shop now in many new colors.

Last Day we went to the new movie called "The help" rated pg 13

Didn't know what to expect, was told it was excellent.

One of my favorite movies.

Historical subject, entertaining and funny.

Set in the 1950's 1960's

You may love the decor...aqua cabinets, pinks, fancy mansions, properness, hairdo's

and women wearing lots and lots of dresses and pearls.

Conner being 13, I am sure he saw the movie in a different way than I.

And myself being raised in this era.

 Being a child...pretty sure I didn't know of these issues.

Learned some things.

Audience clapped at the end.

Conner struck up interesting conversation afterwards.

We've come a long ways

Thank goodness.

Let me know if you become a Big Bang watcher!

Can't believe school begins in a week?
